55I highly recommend this spot! It's a great size, was very quite and gorgeous! Easy to get to as well - right off of major roadways but surprisingly quiet and secluded. Beautifully landscaped with lots of different sections of yard for my dog to explore and enjoy all of the lovely smells - and definitely room for him to run. Not only is this a wonderful place for your dog to decompress, but it is a wonderful place for humans to decompress as well. The yard is so lovely and there were different sections with seating depending on if you wanted to enjoy shade or sunshine. The host is very gracious as well - had a variety of toys, big bucket of water, and some bug spray and sunblock if you wanted it. I'll definitely be back!Mary D.

55Beautiful hidden gem…. Owner was attentive and left water, toys, and even umbrella since called for rain. Seating throughout and our pups enjoyed themselves. I forgot my phone so no pictures of the happy and tied pups. Highly recommend and we will be back! Joy H.

55We had another wonderful visit! This yard is so gorgeous, quiet, and large and perfect place for both humans and dogs to decompress. The hosts are very generous leaving out lots of fresh water, towels, and toys. There are shady and sunny areas to sit and enjoy the beautiful landscaping. It’s very easy to get to - I live north of the spot, closer to DC and can get here pretty quickly and without major traffic (I’ve done mornings and early evenings). I highly recommend this spot!

55This space is absolute paradise. Monja has really thought of everything. My pups were absolutely knackered after our play-date here. Ocean made great use of the wadding pool to cool off and had fun exploring the yard and chasing after us, while Blue had one of the biggest games of fetch he has ever had. So much thought has gone into the garden (the whole yard is WONDERFUL) and the amenities. My pups loved the treats (especially since we forgot our own) and the toy selection is wonderful. It’s like a luxury play arena for all dogs, no matter what they enjoy! Neethi J.

55We had a great time here with our two dogs! Monja kindly showed us around and provided us with everything we needed in clearly marked bins (and even some treats!). The yard itself is a beautiful oasis with plenty of room to run around and explore. Not just fun for the dogs, but very relaxing for human guests as well! Thank you, we'll be back!Cassandra N.

55I love coming here with my two dogs! Second time now and definitely not the last. The backyard is beautiful with lots of detail and plenty of seating. I really enjoy coming here as it is peaceful and relaxing and huge! Not only that, Monja supplies a nice and neat container with my name on it and supplies in case we need it - towels, treats, blankets and extra clean up products as well as toys! It is so sweet. Memorable and amazing experience.Vivian N.

FAQ about our Alexandria dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed. You can learn more about safety around water here.
How can I find the best dog water parks in Alexandria?
How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
Sniffspot dog water parks can have a variety of features, everything from swimming pools to rivers to beaches to hoses and kiddie pools. If you are dreaming of a curtain of water, water tunnels, a ball pit pool, water slide ball pits, splash pools or other cool features, you can definitely find amazing features at Sniffspot dog water parks. Each water park is different, so check the details of the park to find the incredible dog water park of your dreams.
